Officers responding to a call of a shooting in the 4600 block of Werner Street about 10 p.m. found the man inside a vehicle, said officer Shereese Harper, a New Orleans Police Department spokesman. The man was shot multiple times and pronounced dead on the scene, Harper said.

The man's identity was not immediately available, pending notification of family, Harper said.

While investigators had not determined a motive early Monday, they did find drugs inside the vehicle, Harper said.
